H-1B Quota – Numbers are Still Moving Upwards

Fiscal year 2011 has been a relatively slow year for H-1B usage. Whether it’s the economy or increased scrutiny of H-1B petitions or increased H-1B filing fees, I thought you might want to know that the quota is still open.

As of November 22, USCIS informed the public that approximately 48,977 cases have been counted against the general quota and approximately 17,836 cases have been counted against the advanced degree quota.
